Ramp rates of building-integrated renewable energy systems

Alo Allik, Heiki Lill, Andres Annuk

Abstract


This article analyses the ramp rates of household electricity consumption and the power production of building-integrated PV panels and wind generators. These aspects are important for the optimization of energy storage and demand-side management in buildings with prosumer status. The output power data from PV panels and a wind generator from the same building were used. It was found that the yearly standard deviation of solar energy output is greater than the standard deviation of output from the analyzed wind generator but the ramp rates are higher for the wind turbine. Ramp rates of the solar energy power plant have a slower rising slope comparatively to the same parameter from the wind generator. This shows higher temporal stability in PV output which was also validated with autocorrelation functions.
